Re: [Zero] 20 years and counting

Sorry to burst the bubble, guys, but if a Euro-woman thought you were all "cute" and "american" back in the 1980s, she was likely comparing you to Ronald Reagan or Michael Jackson, our giant cultural symbols of the day, neither of which could possibly end well. Then again, if she was really Euro-fun and not faking the accent to amuse a bunch of CS geeks, she may have been comparing you to Duran Duran.
I did put “cute” in quotes, because I knew definitions would vary between the Euro-woman and myself.

And being to compared to Duran Duran is great if she was thinking Simon LeBon. Cute-as-a-button that eurotrash piece of work! (yes, I called him eurotrash, in a good way!)
